EMPATHY:

Understanding and caring about how others are feeling

*Empathy is about sharing an emotion with someone, or feeling the way they feel, even if you aren’t in the same situation.

*Empathy means you see things from someone else’s point of view, or from their perspective.

RESPECT

• Treating someone or something well

Students have been learning how to practice showing respect with their words and behaviors at school. Teachers and students discuss what respect looks like, sounds like, feels like between:

*teacher to student*, *student to student*, *student to self*, and *student to school*

You can help your student practice respect at home by expecting words and behaviors that reflect how you as an adult want to be treated. Modeling respect is the first step!
